WHO WE ARE

Lanna Foundation is a philanthropic non-profit, which partners with a Thailand based NGO, Integrated Tribal Development Program (ITDP), who has been working towards ending poverty in local hill tribe villages for more than 26 years.

There are over half a million hill tribe villagers (made up of refugee peoples from Burma, Myanmar, Laos, China and more) in Northern Thailand who live below the poverty line. By partnering with Integrated Tribal Development Program, we help ensure the well-being of these people and the sustainable development that I.T.D.P. has continued to see positive results in since 1991.

The sustainability projects we partner with are: clean water and sanitation, agriculture and coffee, education and medical care.

Thank you for helping us make these possible and providing hope for the hill tribes!

Our partner organization on the ground in Thailand is Inter Tribal Development Program.

They are a NGO in Chiang Mai, Thailand, working towards ending poverty in local hill tribe villages.

“We focus on developing their community both sustainably and holistically, so that they may bebetter equipped once the poverty is surpassed.”

They believe that getting villagers out of poverty is important, but it shouldn’t stop there. They build relationships and provide them with a means to not only come out of poverty, but stay out of poverty.
